  • Patent number: 5439108
    Abstract: A tool box having a plurality of trays stackable therein provides a snug fit for each of the trays located therein so as to prevent any lateral movement of the trays as the tool box is moved. Further, a topmost tray engages the lid of the tool box when the lid is closed, thereby preventing any vertical movement of the trays as the tool box is moved. In this manner, the contents of each compartment of each tray remain in place even if the tool box is dropped as long as the lid does not open. Two latches on the front of the tool box prevent the lid from opening as the tool box is moved about.

  • Patent number: 5283997
    Abstract: A corner element for use in combination with cabinet corner structures such as those found in kitchen cabinets or the like includes a pair of side portions having an angular relationship therebetween which corresponds to the angle of cabinet intersection. An obliquely angled facet extends between the side portions. A generally cylindrical concave curved surface extends between the remaining end portions of the side surfaces to complete the corner element. In its preferred use, the corner element is secured to the cabinet base portions at the corner area to interpose the curved surface between the base portions and preclude dirt or debris from accumulating within the corner intersection of the cabinet bases.
